Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 1055 - 974: Qinglong Jade King (Two Chapters in One)

Qin Heng was tall and handsome with a great demeanor. At first glance, Wang Ziyuan was quite taken with him and didn't want him to be targeted or tormented.

Moreover, she believed that the reason Qin Heng was being targeted might be because of her, which made her feel guilty.

"No matter who this Liu Tianyang is, if he really wants to harm this person, I'll have to reveal my identity." Wang Ziyuan decided in her heart, "It's a pity that I barely managed to escape from home, and now I'll be taken back."

She knew clearly that as long as she exposed her identity, within three days, someone from her family would come to take her back. Although this was because her family was concerned for her safety, she still yearned for freedom outside.

At this moment, some people also looked at Qin Heng with sympathetic eyes, and even mocked him quietly.

"Kid, you're done for, you've offended Young Master Liu Tianyang, and I'm afraid you won't get out of this street tonight."

"Haha, look at him, he seems not to know Young Master Liu's identity. Ignorance is bliss, but he'll soon find out."

"By then, he should be in despair."

"Heh heh, this kid is doomed. He offended Young Master Liu, he's finished."

"He's just asking for it!"

"Who told him to be tall and handsome? Probably attracted some woman that Young Master Liu fancied. People like him deserve to die!"

"Serves him right!"

They were all talking, believing that Qin Heng was surely doomed, having offended Liu Tianyang, a big figure, with no chance of rescue.

Unless, someone with an even higher status steps in to back him up.

But, is that possible?

Clearly, it's not possible. In the vast Qinglong City, those who could pressure Liu Tianyang in status are incredibly rare, only those of the few top-tier forces.

And would someone from those top-tier forces come alone to Caiyun Pavilion?

Impossible!

It's simply an impossible thing.

Furthermore, this kid looks unfamiliar, not like someone from Qinglong City, most likely from elsewhere, just a transient with no roots here in Qinglong City.

Liu Tianyang could easily get rid of such a person.

In fact, it doesn't take someone of Liu Tianyang's status, even an ordinary thug kingpin could easily finish off such an outsider.

In the Huangfeng River that runs through Qinglong City, every day, an unknown number of outsiders are found dead.

All because they dared to offend those they shouldn't have.

In everyone's eyes, Qin Heng was already destined for such a fate, and indeed, his end could be even more tragic, after all, he offended Liu Tianyang!

"Young Master Liu, please have some tea." Feng Yu didn't immediately disclose Liu Tianyang's identity, but first poured a cup of tea to offer to Liu Tianyang, then turned to the crowd and said, "Young Master Liu usually keeps a low profile, doesn't like to show off, so it's normal you don't know his name, but there's one name you surely have heard, which is 'Qinglong Jade King'."

Qinglong Jade King!?

Qin Heng had no feelings about this name, but it was different for the people around; upon hearing this name, they were all dumbfounded, mouths agape, looking at Liu Tianyang in disbelief.

Qinglong Jade King, Liu Shenwu!

This was a legendary figure in Qinglong City. Thirty years ago, Liu Shenwu was known as Liu Wu, merely a servant of the Liu family, one of the three major families in Qinglong City. Later, for some unknown reason, he became a Grandmaster of Transcendence, earned enough money to buy his freedom from the Liu family.

Afterwards, he changed his name to Liu Shenwu, started in the jade business, relying on his strength and the connections he built up while in the Liu family, he quickly accumulated a fortune over a billion, becoming one of the members of Qinglong City's high society.

However, this was not the end.

In just five or six years, Liu Shenwu's business reached its peak in the jade industry, earning him the title of Qinglong Jade King, but he wasn't satisfied with just that.

After earning over a billion in the jade industry, he started to venture into other areas, beginning with other types of jewelry, then catering, and later real estate, film, and other industries.

To this day, two to three decades later, Liu Shenwu has become one of Qinglong City's top riches, with the Jade Dragon Group under his control boasting assets over ten billion, an absolute giant.

Caiyun Pavilion is actually an asset under the Jade Dragon Group.

Moreover, Liu Shenwu's own strength also saw a drastic improvement, as early as ten years ago, he successfully established the Heavenly Earthly Bridge, channeling the Heavenly Essence, stepping into the Innate Realm, becoming a Great Grandmaster!

In the entire Qinglong City, apart from the towering three families, there are very few people or forces that could be compared with this Qinglong Jade King!!

He is definitely one of the top figures in Qinglong City!!

Liu Tianyang is actually associated with this great figure!?

After hearing Feng Yu's words, everyone present felt as if they had heard some earth-shattering news, and their gaze towards Liu Tianyang changed, some even trembled with excitement, while others were so shocked they slumped to the ground.

Wang Ziyuan couldn't help but look at Liu Tianyang, she also had some impressions of the title "Qinglong Jade King," knowing he was a person of high status in this generation of Qinglong City.

After a while, the people around finally came back to their senses, but their gaze at Liu Tianyang still filled with shock.

"Could it be, Young Master Liu Tianyang is the Qinglong Jade King!?"

"Are you stupid? Young Master Liu Tianyang is obviously only in his twenties, how could he be the Jade King. I guess the Jade King should be Young Master Liu's father!"

"Exactly, Young Master Liu is indeed the son of Qinglong Jade King Liu Shenwu, and the only son, the future successor of the Jade King Group, and also the current senior president of the Jade Dragon Group!"

"Whoa! That's amazing!"

"Hahaha! Looks like that kid is definitely doomed, Young Master Liu's status is renowned throughout Qinglong City!"

"Done for, done for, that kid is completely doomed, I bet he's scared out of his wits now! Hahaha!"

"Daring to mess with Young Master Liu, this kid is truly blind, ignorant of life and death!"

"Just asking for his own death!"

The people around look at Qin Heng with pity; in their eyes, Qin Heng is completely done for, with absolutely no hope left.

In Qinglong City, ordinary people simply can't compete against a giant like the Jade Dragon Group, any bit of resistance would be squashed like an ant.

No doubt about it!

This is something proven by countless occurrences.

In this era, it may appear calm and rules are in place, but the underground rule remains one: the strong dominate!

Offending the strong is courting death, this principle is as clear as day and thoroughly normal in this era.

Wang Ziyuan looked worriedly at Qin Heng, knowing fully well how powerful the Jade Dragon Group was in Qinglong City, far beyond what ordinary people can oppose.

Hence, she bit her red lips and stood out, walking to Qin Heng's side, turning to face Liu Tianyang.

The surrounding people were stunned, looking at Wang Ziyuan in surprise, all puzzled why she would step out. She started working at Caiyun Pavilion a month ago, extremely beautiful, usually soft and seldom talking to people. What did she intend to do by standing here at this moment??

People were very puzzled, unable to understand her actions.

"Ziyuan, what do you want to do?" Liu Tianyang asked through gritted teeth, seeing Wang Ziyuan walk over and standing in front of Qin Heng, his heart ignited with rage.

"Don't call me Ziyuan, we're not familiar." Wang Ziyuan said coldly, then pointed to Qin Heng, "I don't know this person, we have no connection, there's no need for you to target him."

"What?" Liu Tianyang was taken aback, then erupted in laughter, "Hahahaha! You damn well stood up for him in front of everyone and said you don't know him! You think I'm an idiot!?"

He was trembling with anger, and his gaze at Qin Heng had murderous intent, his fists clenched tightly, veins bulging on his forehead, he shouted furiously at Qin Heng: "You little bastard, kneel for me! Kneel immediately! Gouge out your own eyes this instant, or I'll make sure you die today!!"
